ENABLE’s goal is to improve the policy and regulatory environment for business in Nigeria. It employs an innovative market systems approach, seeking to facilitate systemic change in the market for business environment reform, by addressing the underlying causes (rather than just the symptoms) of weakness in the market system. The core market is characterised by BMOs on the demand-side and government on the supply-side. Through advocacy, BMOs demand change in the business environment. Government Ministries, Departments, Agencies (MDAs) supply change through policy, legislative and regulatory reform. PPD is the platform through which demand and supply come together. In addition to this core transaction ENABLE has identified the media and research information as key supporting functions needed for the emergence of effective dialogue in Nigeria. Media are effective platforms for dialogue and can pursue and investigate issues on their own right. Information and research are the basis for evidence-based advocacy and policy, legal and regulatory responses
